ssh2 VS opn

I found a node module called ssh2. It is possible to bundle node js via browserify/webpack, however there seems to be an issue with something called the crypto module. I found a repo discussing this, but I cannot point out if there is a working solution for this problem.

This was a fun little hack I wrote in NodeJS. I used the video-to-ascii project to output the Rickroll MP4 as a series of ASCII characters (it actually outputs a nice bash script). Then I wrote a small TCP server (for telnet) in NodeJS to simply pipe the output of the video bash script right to your telnet client! To add SSH support, I used the Node ssh2 library to create a simple SSH Server that is just piped to the telnet server (basically a proxy).

It will use your default browser. If you want to change this behavior edit server.js in line 2315 according to your preferences. Reference: https://www.npmjs.com/package/open

I can open a new browser tab using the tool open as below:

Using this package: https://www.npmjs.com/package/open

open, to open links in the browser from the cli.

Nodejs doesn't have the capabilities of the browser, so there are no windows to "open". You'll need something like https://github.com/sindresorhus/open or similar.
